PostgreSQL >= 15 does not automatically grant rights on the public schema.  
  
It makes sense to back patch this to older versions to minimize differences in the script.

PostgreSQL reports the statement text for each statement in the script as the entire script text, which can blow up the logs. The create/alter statement will still be logged.
  

  
Since a superuser is responsible for determining which extensions are available, and in most cases installing them, it should not be necessary to log each statement in the script.

Similar to #156, this prevents users from defining their own versions of functions used in the event triggers. Either one should be sufficient on its own, but both provides better defense against regressions.

Use qualified references to functions and operators in the SQL queries executed by the event triggers to prevent users from defining their own functions or operators to replace them.
  

  
This would not prevent audit logging, but it would allow the user to modify the type and name of the object in the DDL statement being audited.

Fix logic to properly classify SELECT FOR UPDATE as SELECT.

This logic was submitted in PR #88 but there was some confusion on my part about what it was supposed to do. Since the title was "Suppress logging for internally generated foreign-key queries" I tried to make it do that, and broke SELECT FOR UPDATE logging, which unfortunately had no test.
  

  
Reading the PR again, it seems Peter's intention was only to correctly classify SELECT FOR UPDATE as SELECT. In any case that represents an improvement over what we have, even if it does not suppress logging for internally generated foreign-key queries, at least not in the case of SELECT.
  

  
So, revert the logic that suppressed the SELECT FOR UPDATE logging and use Peter's logic that correctly classifies them as SELECT.
  

  
Also add a SELECT FOR UPDATE test to prevent regressions.

Since ExecCheckRTPerms() is no longer called for "create table as" and "create materialized view" we can't depend on that mechanism to log inserts into the newly created table / mat view.
  

  
Instead, capture the into relation in the utility hook and then use it to generate an insert log record at query start.

This setting, when turned off (not default), turns off all logging of the full statement text and parameters. This is analogous to log_statement_once, except it never logs the statement.
  

  
Depending on requirements, the full statement text might not be required in the audit log. The combination of command tag and object can be enough. Omitting the full statement text makes the logs less verbose and can also prevent some accidental information leaks.
